Best explanation yet of this team.....

No Burger. No Romy. No Bueno

This will be a tougher matchup, as Lorenzen owned the Sox last time.

Hoped Zavala would catch Cease today, but that’s not the case.

Burger remains on the bench, because poor platoon guy. Meet the new Tony, same as the old Tony.

I’m OK with Romy getting a day off, but Grigio saying Elvis can regain his everyday starting spot back is absurd, whether you are trying to win now or in the future.

 

Afternoon games for Fox sucks.

Every game is essential for the Sox at this point. Burger hits the cover off the ball at home and Romy has been hot. What are you saving them for? Play them.

Eloy on a career tying 13 game hit streak, with an IL stint contained within said streak.

Grandal hasn't hit well against Lorenzen career wise. 

Any idea why Cease stopped calling his own game? He was dominating at the start of the season. 

This is why this is a loser organization. Guys like Moncada, who loaf it to 1st base and don't seem to enjoy the game playing over guys like Burger who bust it every time and want to win. It's the same crap with every manager which makes me think the orders are coming from higher up. Jake is really one of the only reasons I'm still tuning in. I'm so tired of this garbage.

I’m starting to think Grifol is an idiot and might be in over his head.

Andrew's no gold glover, but he is better than Sheets at first

I think he was safe.

I think they should change the replay rule to it doesn't matter what the call on the field was, just tell us if he was safe or out.

good start

 

andrew should consider hitting a home run

Anderson 631

Benintendi 671

 

Gap has closed quickly.  Shouldn't be hitting any fly balls to the opposite field.

Ideally Beintendi is an 8 or 9 hitter, TA 7 hole, Robert 6 hole. My god at the team OPS.

Hahn really fucked up giving out so much money up front to average players

Grandal first CS against DET... Maton not exactly fleet of foot. 

They're really missing Greene and Austin Meadows has been out for a long time already...complete dearth of LHH. 

Moncada gave the fans a thrill... sort of... off the bat.

Where has his power gone?

Torkelson and Vaughn both use the same hitting coach and Scottsdale neighbors. 

 

Repeat of last weekend. Lorenzen getting set up to throw a Maddux.

I think it was never there tbh.......juiced ball inflated it. This is his power.

Gone with the juiced ball or the juice he may have been taking.
